Siheyuan: How dare I mess with a man who is an expert in men's health?
Chapter 9 Entering the City
the next day.
Cao Anping slept until noon again. In fact, he had woken up a long time ago, but because the weather was cold and he had nothing to do, he stayed in bed.
I had nothing to do so I sorted out my thoughts on recent events in bed.
He originally planned to wait for Xu Damao to send news before going to the city to visit Li Huaide, so that he could get things done in one go.
But thinking that he only had five Dragon Essence Tiger Fertile Pills in his hand, it might not satisfy Li Huaide's appetite, so he had to go to the city to buy some medicinal herbs and stock up more.
Another thing is that there is really not much money at home, so I have to find a way to get something delicious, but I don’t have a ticket, so I have to go to the black market.
After thinking it over, I realized that I really needed to go into town as soon as possible, so I got up and started making lunch.
This time he learned his lesson and made several kilograms of steamed buns made of two-grain flour at one time, and stored them into the space while they were still hot. He had never thought of this use of the space before, and it seemed that he was not yet adapted to the identity of a time traveler.
After lunch, Cao Anping went to the village chief to get a letter of introduction. Since he planned to go to the black market, he would definitely have to stay in a guesthouse at night, so a letter of introduction was indispensable.
......
Cao Anping went directly to the village commune. The village chief was quite competent. He was on duty in the commune office when he had nothing to do. Of course, it was also possible that he used public coal to make fire.
"Is Uncle Qin busy?" Cao Anping saw that the door was ajar, so he called out and pushed the door open. He saw that Uncle Qin was drinking tea and warming himself by the fire, looking quite leisurely.
"It's Anping, come and sit down." Qin Dashan has been smiling when he meets people these two days. After taking Longjinghumeng Pills, as long as he does not exercise excessively, it can also enhance the vitality of qi and blood, making people look energetic.
"I heard that Xu Damao invited you for a drink yesterday. You should be careful. This guy almost has the word 'villain' written on his face."
It seems that the village chief, who asked Xu Damao for benefits in showing the movie, felt a little bit painful. He allowed the screening in front of him, but cursed Xu Damao behind his back. This was the first time in Cao Anping's memory that he heard the village chief curse someone behind his back. Usually he would curse him in person.
But think about it, he had a free meal of wine and chicken stewed with mushrooms yesterday. In this year, it really hurts to exchange chicken and wine for a movie.
"Yes, I don't know how Xu Damao knew that I had the Dragon Essence and Tiger Meng Pills, but he forced me to sell him two pills." Cao Anping replied.
"You have to sell it at a higher price. That guy is rich. He has a daughter of a capitalist family." Qin Dashan thought Cao Anping didn't know, so he exposed Xu Damao's past.
As for Lou Xiao'e, how could he not know that she had caused countless troubles in the world? However, Cao Anping still showed his surprise appropriately and replied: "It is not easy to make the Dragon Essence Tiger Fierce Pill. I sell it for five yuan per pill."
Qin Dashan's hands trembled. He guessed that the cost might be only one yuan per piece, and Cao Anping could only sell it for two yuan at most. He didn't expect that this honest child would be so black and sell it for five yuan.
Thinking that I still had nine left, I felt a little reluctant to eat them. That would cost forty or fifty yuan, enough to buy so much food.
Qin Dashan put aside his unrealistic thoughts. It was difficult to buy food even if he had money, so he asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I plan to go into the city to buy some medicinal herbs. Many of them are out of stock, so I'm going to ask Uncle Qin for a letter of introduction." Cao Anping replied.
"Oh, okay. Remember to go to the next commune and take the bus. Don't go into the city by yourself. It's a bit chaotic now. There are people fleeing famine everywhere. The village is planning to have the militia on night duty recently."
Qin Dashan gave Cao Anping a warning, took a stack of letter paper and a pen, put them on the table, and said, "Write it yourself. The official seal is in the drawer, and it's not locked."
Cao Anping was not polite and knew how to write it. His original incarnation had come here before to get a letter of introduction.
After stamping the document, he said thank you and left without staying any longer.
There is no bus passing by Qinjia Village. You have to walk to the next door Hongxing Commune to find a bus stop.
It took about twenty minutes to walk to the station, and there were already several people waiting at the bus stop.
Most people carried a backpack or a basket with collected agricultural and sideline products or mountain products, and took them to the city to exchange for things. This year, they mainly exchanged for food.
No matter how difficult the life in the city is, most ordinary workers will not lack coarse grains, so there will be a market, and they can exchange coarse grains for the farmers' leftover eggs and mountain products to supplement their oil and water.
Cao Anping was the only one with empty hands, so he stood far away and did not go over to join in the fun.
After waiting in the cold for half an hour, a bus with a giant balloon on top slowly drove towards the bus stop.
Cao Anping just remembered that today's buses are gas-powered. He vaguely saw the driver still smoking. He swallowed and felt a little nervous. This was too unsafe. There was a bomb above his head.
The bus creaked to a stop, and Cao Anping was still worried. Everyone else had already squeezed onto the bus, so he had no choice but to get on as well.
There were a lot of people on the bus and there were no seats left, so we had to stand. Fortunately, it was winter and there was no peculiar smell.
The ticket seller started collecting money one by one. It was 1 cent within five bus stops, and another 1 cent after that. There were exactly five stops from Hongxing Commune to Sijiucheng Station, so I paid 1 cent quickly.
Not many people were talking in the car, and everyone seemed listless.
After shaking for an hour and a half, we finally arrived at Sijiucheng. It was already afternoon.
Cao Anping did not stay too long. He had to buy more medicinal herbs before getting off work. The old man was in poor health and his predecessor had come here to buy medicinal herbs before, so he was familiar with the place.
To buy medicine, the barefoot doctors in the village usually just take their medical license and go directly to the hospital pharmacy to buy the medicine, but there are purchase limits, so Cao Anping has to go to several public-private pharmacies to buy some more.
When he arrived at the hospital, Cao Anping went straight to the pharmacy with an empty cloth bag, found Dr. Liu who was dispensing medicine, and politely called out, "Doctor Liu, I'm Cao Anping, I'm here to buy herbs for my grandfather."
The reason for looking for Doctor Liu was because the original owner had helped his grandfather buy medicinal materials here before, and the other party knew him, so it would be less troublesome. After all, he did not have a medical license, so he used his grandfather's license.
"Oh, it's Anping, your grandfather hasn't bought medicine for a long time." Doctor Liu looked up and saw Cao Anping, recognized him at a glance, and said, "Bring your grandfather's ID, don't break the rules."
Cao Anping took out his grandfather's ID and a list and handed them to Dr. Liu, saying, "It's been a while since I bought medicine. All the medicine at home has been used up. I'll buy more this time."
This time, the medicine was purchased mainly for the preparation of Longjinghumeng Pills, so more than a dozen medicines were purchased according to the maximum purchase quantity stipulated.
But he couldn't just buy those dozen or so, after all, the prescription had to be kept secret, so he added a dozen or so other herbs. Of course, the ones he bought were all useful for his current level, such as those for relaxing muscles and tendons, treating bruises and injuries, stopping bleeding, and treating headaches and fevers, etc.
Doctor Liu didn't say much when he saw the list. After all, what Cao Anping bought were all Chinese herbal medicines, and except for deer antlers, none of them were considered precious. If he wanted to buy Western medicine, it would not be so easy.
It took half an hour to weigh all the herbs. Doctor Liu counted twice on the abacus and said, "The total is thirty-six dollars and eighty cents. Sign it."
Cao Anping paid the money, took the list and signed it for his record, then put nearly thirty kinds of medicinal herbs on the counter into the cloth bag one by one, thanked Dr. Liu and left.
After leaving the hospital and passing through an empty alley, Cao Anping put all the medicinal materials into the space. He calculated the medicine he had just bought. About twenty-five yuan was for the medicinal materials for Longjinghumeng Pills. He should be able to make five sets of medicinal materials and more than seventy pills.
There were only a little over seven bottles. I had been planning to go to a public-private joint-venture pharmacy to get two more prescriptions, but then I thought about going to the black market at night and only having more than 60 yuan left, so I decided to save some money for now.
It was almost time to get off work, Cao Anping recalled something and walked towards the guesthouse near the hospital.
